Start year 2016 End year 2019 Funding (€) € 1,219,000 Website https://orbit.dtu.dk/en/projects/process-integration-into-multispecies-and-ecosystem-models-result Summary PRIME TRADEOFFS will produce a step change in the usefulness of multispecies and ecosystem modelling tools by operationalizing the concepts of multi-species maximum sustainable yield and environmental impact on key biological process such as distribution, growth and recruitment operational for ecosystem-based management of marine resources, as demanded in the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and the reformed Common Fisheries Policy (CFP).
The major questions addressed in PRIME TRADEOFFS include how will, (i) integration of environmentally-driven variability in recruitment and spatial distribution affect short-term predictions of economically important fish species, (ii) recruitment, growth, and spatial distributions of these species respond to longer-term projections of climate-driven change, (iii) the regional supply chain of fish and fishmeal products respond to longer-term projections of climate-driven change, and (iv) tactical and strategic ecosystem-based advice best respond to these short- and long-term changes within the context of the reformed CFP and accounting for energy consumption and societal effects.
